Donegal star Karl Lacey is planning to continue to put the boot into the opposition with his lucky boots.
Player of the Year Karl Lacey played a huge part in guiding Donegal to All-Ireland victory at Croke Park last September.
The Donegal Town star is noted for his distinctive white boots.
Karl admits he received more than his fair share of teasing about the boots but says he is sticking with them as Donegal attempt to win the Sam Maguire Cup again.
“I did get a lot of stick from the lads when I first started wearing the white boots but they got used to it.
“I think I’ll keep wearing them because I have done alright with them so far.
“I think I’ll have a lot more to worry about than the colour of my boots this year.
“Every team in the country will be out to beat Donegal this year but we’ll be doing our best to win the All-Ireland again,” he said.
As well as winning Player of the Year and another All-Star Player Award, the bank official has just been named the Donegal Sports Star of the Year.
The Four Masters player received his award at a glamorous function at the weekend where be beat off stiff competition from the likes of fellow GAA star Michael Murphy and Olympic badminton star Chloe Magee.
